About Amy

Hi there! My name is Amy.
mid you're looking for someone to look after your pets with the utmost care and sensitivity you've stumbled on the right profile !
Let me give you a bit of background about myself (and my fur family);

You can rest assured your pet will be cared for and loved knowing that I hold a degree in Bachelor of Applied Science Majoring in Animal Management and Welfare! I have over 7 years in working and managing dog and cat hotels in New Zealand with volunteering in the zoo.

I have owned and cared for a huge range of animals from sheep, horses, rabbits, chinchillas, ducks , chickens , parrots, fish, turtles, cats and dogs just to name a few. (I used to live in rural nz can you tell ? Haha ) I am also trusted among my friends to look after their pets while they're away with no problems at all.

My current household consists of 2 corgis and 2 cats ( british shorthair and rag doll ) plus me and my animal loving husband. I have extensive experience in looking after elderly dogs and disabled dogs too. My current situation is what's pushing me to offer my services, my older corgi has just recently gone through a spinal surgery and the care she needs is so demanding it has taken me away from my job. Allowing for more time to look after her to my best ability. She is hind leg paralyzed so having to carry her through a sling and give medication or crate train her again I've done it all ! There would be no issue in providing physio or stretches or special care for your special fur baby.
Due to these circumstances I would not be able to have pets stay with us but I'd be more than willing to house sit, dog (or cat) walk, and do any sort of visits throughout the day.

With 1 house visit I usually stay for 30 minutes if you'd like me to stay for longer for the one visit eg 1-2.5 hours please book for 2 house visits for the one day this would also take into account how much I need to do around the house.


Im very good with instructions and do not leave food around or am extremely careful around all animals. I'm familiar with raw feeding and also dry food feeding for dogs as I have used both before. I work part time and mainly from home so my schedule is quite flexible. You can book in certain times of the day you'd like me to visit your place and would always send you updates , photos and do health checks for them each time I go. With home visits I can also water plants or look after fish as well. Please note I live in Lidcombe area so depending on your location I may or may not be able to make it if it is too far of a drive.


If you have any concerns please don't hesitate to reach out as I am also the owner that sends lists or timetables on how to care for my pets when I leave.
I look forward to meeting you and your loved ones !

I am very satisfied with Amy’s work and I would highly recommend her. She was very kind and caring to my cat and she also took time to play with her and entertain her.

Highly recommend Amy and the service she provides. We have an eclectic array of animals (frogs, galahs, cats) and she was able to cater to all their needs. Amy kept us updated with pictures and messages over the week we were away to reassure us everything was ok. Even took out the bins and brought in the mail. Excellent service!
